Creator's Key Takeaways
Overall, except for Celebrity, every single cruise line I mentioned today is down from what it was 2 years ago in ratings and customer satisfaction.
If you're going to go on MSC, go in the Yacht Club because at least the food is better and you got some private area away from the kids.
The experience on the cruises got worse. And now that everyone's back to cruising, even more than before the pandemic, and the ships are more and more crowded, the service hasn't gotten better, it's gotten worse.
